Completely new investor wondering where to begin
Hi, my name is Gentry Thompson and I'm just getting started in the world of real estate investing. I aim to use real estate investing to build generational wealth, enable me to work a traditional job only if I want to, pay off my student loans, travel on demand, pursue dreams and to give money away to worthy causes.
I'm thirty years old, work two part-time jobs that are just ways to make ends meet and have a little under thirty-seven thousand dollars in student loan debt which I very much want to get out of. I am in the process of becoming a real estate agent at this moment but I want to get started investing as soon as possible. I've read and heard a lot of great information that I'm trying to synthesize. I'm not exactly sure what to do next.
So, my question is: based on my circumstances, what are your recommendations as to what I should do at this moment to begin investing in real estate?
